Or maybe it is, if you look at the last paragraph

So, there you have it: a tempest in a (chrome) teapot. Not that it's the only one; as Ina Fried of News.com points out, Chrome's "Omnibar" can also access all keystrokes a user types, and Google will store some of this information along with IP addresses.

Quote from wien :

Where exactly does it say this? I've seen it quoted all over the web, but it's not in the privacy policy and Googling (hah) some of the text only produces links to news sites.

The EULA

http://www.google.com/chrome/eula.html

Go to 11.1

11.2 is good as well:

I take it you have all read the terms and conditions properly.

This was quite interesting.

Wont be using it quite yet.

And this:

The second point could be especially significant - Google can display, for free, any content we display, submit or post!

Unlikely to make this one, so good luck all.

I don't think you've anything to apologise for. Overall the league has been enjoyable and very well organised. Of course some people will have bad nights, but I think the majority have had fun.

As for 4mula95 - he's just an immature child acting the big man from a safe distance. More to be pitied than anything..

Quote from bozo :

I felt sorry for Serp on lap 4. You were slow coming out of the corner before the last chicane, and I had the momentum to get alongside. We touched wheels at the left kink, before I moved ahead into the chicane and you couldn't slow in time. I've watched the replay a few times from different angles to understand what happened. It appears that I was expecting you to be taking the kink a bit closer to the kerb, but perhaps you were aware of GFresh coming up your inside. Overall I think that I made the move correctly. I'd be interested to hear your view though.

At first I thought it was over-ambitious, but you're right, I would have taken a different line if GFresh wasn't threatening.

Anyway, I've raced you enough to know what a clean racer you are.

Sorry I didn't make it for this. I got unexpectedly caught up in something at work.

I think it will be best that i just wait till a good patch or version this game comes out then ill return.

Goodbye. Don't let the door... etc.

Quote from tristancliffe :

Kill Joy. His parents aren't here, he fell into some cyanide... it's a laughing matter. For centuries humans have taken pleasure in seeing strangers suffer - You've Been Framed (a UK TV show with clips of people falling off scooters, or tripping up into swimming pools) is a good example of this.

Don't try and make me care about some random idiot with insufficient leg-eye co-ordination. If I knew him I might worry. I don't know him, so I don't care. There are plenty more humans (too many) to take his place in the food-chain.

That post says more about your intelligence and maturity than you'll ever know.

I hope you get the life you deserve.

Quote from Shotglass :

i wonder if he got any superpowers now

Why don't you phone his family and ask?

I'm sure they would appreciate some humour at this time.

Quote from BlueFlame :

It was a mistake, easy to see why you don't understand the mistake, as YOU don't drive in the RSWC. And I am not the only one who thought what I did, I was just the only one to said it, I
thought I should save some people from getting penalties I don't want anyone to get a penalty, so when one person trys to help, even when it is a mistake people still want to put them into trouble by making it sound like it was a malicious attempt at trying to gain an advantage....

I accept you meant well, but you must remember that some people don't know who you are. I, for one, thought you were a Race Director and knew what you were talking about.

I believed I was familiar with the rules, but when you raised the issue I went off to check, thereby losing qualifying time.

What really got me though, was you accused me of not knowing the rules because I went to check them! Class!

(Wow! Posting Private Messages is a bit low, is it not?)

Dan, I made a mistake at T1 in the second race. It wasn't intentional - I lost it on the gratings - but I took a few out. You may want to look at that and I'll accept any penalty you see fit.

Thank you Dan and GFresh for organising and running this.

Last night was fun.

Serp.

And yet another, please

From what I have read thus far, he ran from the police, and when approached on the train he failed to comply or some jazz.

Good grief! That was disinformation issued at the time, and completely discredited a short while later. Really, if you're going to have extreme opinions you should at least make an effort to keep up.

Quote :

They acted as best as they knew how to, it was a risky gamble and it bit them in the arse, but it is better that then risk letting a bomber go and blow up a train.

I wonder if you'd feel the same way if it was a loved one of yours that got 8 bullets put in them on their way to work. But still, better safe than sorry, eh?

Nice event guys (well, apart from a certain 'element')

Thanks.

Apparently, some people hope next year it will be 'Hamutton'

Quote from wark :

Today, a forum user will look back at these fear-driven, paranoid posts and laugh.

Today?

Quote from Jertje :

One day, historians will look back at this fear-driven, paranoid society and laugh.

They won't be able to. All books will have been burnt, the government will control the media, and laughter will be deemed subversive.

Good work QS. You really have a talent for this.

Me too!

Quote from Leprekaun :

I was involved with many conflicts between ATC members, that shouldn't give you the right to have me banned from the series.

If you'd researched a bit you'd have discovered they have every right.

Quote :

I've decided not to speak to any of the participants whom I've had former conflicts with

Who does that leave?

Seriously though, Lep, I thought you'd moved on, and that was best for all concerned.

Quote from franky500 :

i hate sites like facebook and bebo and myspace .. ect... they just dont appeal to me.

Yeah, I've never really seen the point of them. I can understand why MySpace would appeal to a band, as a way to get their music 'out there', but that's about it, really.

Maybe he's just stating a fact.
